A New Lariat Necklace for Spring

I should really make more lariats. They are such statement pieces and really stand out. Though they take longer than some other pieces, I do enjoy making them. Besides, they are fun to wear!

This particular lariat has 3-D petal designs on the focal piece and smooth, rounded pods at the ends of the strands. I used ultra-suede strips for the necklace straps. They are strong, yet feel good on the neck. One of the beauties of this necklace form is that it is very adjustable, and one size really does fit most.

About Me

Art and creativity are an important part of my life. I love making things - and I love to teach. I feel so fortunate to have found mediums which allow me to do both! I enjoy working in beadweaving, PMC, polymer and porcelain, though recently polymer and beadweaving have "taken over" my time and attention.
If you have questions or would like to contact me, drop me a line: kyfoss@comcast.net I'd love to hear from you.
